Neon that lights the room
A night promo for a bar or club. Your venue's name is a real neon sign that buzzes on letter by letter and lights your footage, then slams on with the drop.

What Vidova will do
Make a 14-second, 9:16 promo for Friday night at my bar. My bar's name is a real neon sign hanging high in the frame. It buzzes on letter by letter in the dark, and its light falls on my footage: the people and the room under it brighten and turn the colour of the tube, and they drop back to the dark when a tube flickers. Footage: I attach night clips of my venue: dancers, faces under stage light, the crowd with their hands up, the DJ. Pick shots with dark space at the top of the frame, so the sign never covers a face, and with people in the upper half, where the light falls. The sign: My bar's name in capitals, made of bent glass tube, pink (#ff2d95), about 200 pixels high, centred about 615 pixels above the middle of the frame. Under it, "FRIDAY" in a blue tube (#39d5ff) at about 40 percent of that size. Each tube is real glass: dark tinted glass with a highlight when it is off, and when it is on a white-hot core inside the coloured tube with a soft gas glow around it, dark electrode ends and small mounts behind it. No other text. The light: The sign relights the footage itself, not a colour overlay. The room sits at about 45 percent of its own light, and the tubes' light falls on the picture by distance, strongest near the sign. When a tube flickers, the room dims with it. Timing: Use a house track at about 129 BPM with a long build and a hard drop. Start it so the drop lands at 8.5 seconds. At 0.2 seconds a switch clicks. The letters of my name catch at 0.35, 0.95, 1.5 and 2.05 seconds, each with a few frames of stutter and an electrical crackle, and a low 60 Hz buzz starts with the first one. Cut on the downbeats at about 2.9, 4.8 and 6.7 seconds. From 6.7 seconds the tubes get tired and drop out now and then, and "FRIDAY" sputters but does not catch. Hero moment: At 8.25 seconds the power cuts. Every tube goes dark and the music drops out for about 0.3 seconds. On the drop at 8.5 seconds, the whole name and "FRIDAY" slam on at once, the sign surges brighter and punches in 5 percent, a riser stops and a deep impact lands, and I cut to a face lit by both colours. Then cut on the downbeats at 10.4 and 12.3 seconds through the crowd and the dancers. Ending: At 13.8 seconds the power cuts again with the switch, so the video ends in the same dark it started in. Every shot pushes in slowly, and the sign creeps in about 3 percent over the whole video. Sound: The track at 85 percent. Only the switch, the crackles, the buzz, the riser and the impact. No whoosh on the cuts.
